Some of the positioning is strange (though we know that the announced lineups often bear little resemblance to how they appear on the ground)
Smith "Health protocol" is "convenient" for Lever's return.
Brown - obviously it is felt that rushing over on the day of the match after not training for a week isn't ideal..
No talls on the emergency list - is that tempting fate?
MitchBrown is a listed player yet no mention of concussion or concussion protocols.
No injury listed to JVR causing his withdrawal from the Casey game 🤔
I guess we have to presume that the hypocritical VFL continue to pay lip service to issues of concussion and behind the play hits ….. unless I have missed something Mitch Browns assailant has got off scot free.
Any updates on his condition?
(And still nothing about JVR’s late withdrawal).
Exactly. That why the idiots at AFL HQ could even consider an odd number of teams. The lying spin will be that teams will look forward to the bye to reinvigorate even those “lucky” enough to get the bye round 1 or 2 or 22 or 23 🤮😱😡🤢

these ratios reflect even more his development into a far more balanced and mature team player, and his kicking has markedly improved over the journey. Handball remains elite.
Did the Cats take amphetamines, or did they dope the Pies with Valium? Swab the lot of them.
Still, a long season and the Cats will tire by the late rounds.
OMG - Selwood the ducking winger HTB, goal Collingwood .... then a second free. Great culture Cats.
Then, Selwood again missed an easy tackle on Sidebum.
He is going too get really angry and maybe completely loses it.
Yes ... certainly a dilemma. Of course if Cats did get to finals they wouldn't be likely to get past a prelim.
OMG - a pretty soft free, then a gift goal 50m to Dunderfield
